SUBJECT COMPLEMENTS
Uncle Marcos
Isabel Allende

A subject complement is a noun, a pronoun, or an adjective that appears with


a linking verb and tells something about the subject. Three types of subject
complements are predicate nouns, predicate pronouns, and predicate
adjectives.

A predicate noun is a noun that identifies or renames the subject of the


sentence.

A predicate pronoun is a pronoun that identifies or renames the subject of the


sentence.

A predicate adjective is an adjective that describes the subject of the


sentence.

A. DIRECTIONS: Underline the subject complement in each sentence.


Then, identify it by writing PN for predicate noun, PP for predicate
pronoun, or PA for predicate adjective.
1.     PP       Clara’s uncle was he.

3.    PA        His moustache was thin.


4.      PN      Nicolás is Marcos’s great-nephew.
5.            Marcos once became a clairvoyant.
6.            The person most affected by his death is she.

B. DIRECTIONS: In each sentence, circle the linking verb and


underline the subject complement.
1. The instrument is a high-pitched noisemaker.
2. The woman standing in the window was she.
3. Marcos’s shipment was enormous boxes.
4. The man with the adventures spirit is he.
